True, but often misinterpreted as "a player holding or dirribling the ball in the frontcourt." That's why most (many) of us split the requirement into 1) team control and 2) ball in the front court.
If there was team control during a throw-in, and with no other rules changes, then a throw-in that bounced in the front court and was recovered by A in the back court would be a violation. So would a throw-in that deflected off A1 in the front court and was recovered by A2 in the backcourt. These are the reasons the NCAA changed the wording on backcourt violations ("does not apply during a throw-in") and the definition of when a throw-in ends ("When controlled on the court" -- instead of the FED's "when touched")

Ok, that makes sense. I hadn't reconciled that possibility of the status of the ball on situation like that.
By the way, use your edit button, quick, before Mr. Spelling Guy wakes up.
